I defended him this offseason. But as the season has gone on it's clear as day he just doesn't fit what we should be doing on offense (running out of shotgun, passing to backs, having our backs pass protect, etc.).

He doesn't pass block well. He doesn't catch the ball all that well. He's not as quick as Perine hitting the hole. We should utilize quicker backs that can win in the pass game and screen game. 

This offense needs to take a deep look at itself and figure out it's strengths. Develop those strengths more and evolve the offense by continually drawing up new and exciting plays to attack the weaknesses of the defenses we are playing. Haven't seen enough of this.
